Each one had his on channel for the recording, one on the left the other on the right. Another is "Can't Stand the Rezillos," Jo Callis on guitar (he wrote most of the material) and William Mysterious owns the bass on that album.
Definitely seconding Can't Stand The Rezillos, and Disraeli Gears is quality.

Thanks.
If any band I thought you might like on that list it would be Soundgarden, no? I had trouble looking at your list at first cause I have coulrophobia, but then I went back and checked it out and I thought it was cool to see both Ramones and Modern Lover on it. Jonathan Richman isn't bad at writing. He wrote the theme song to There's Something about Mary, and was part of the two man band that plays in between scenes in the movie.

Proto-punk or whatever the funk, The Modern Lovers made some insanely good and creative pop songs. And I like Soundgarden, but I can't say I love them. They got some songs that rule though.

Imagine the mental anguish of making a "Your Top 50 Songs" list.

Hard to pass up on Soilwork side projects.

Certainly not bad, but not amazing. Strid was still dull, and I probably would have liked it more if the main riff wasn't obviously lifted from a song I can't quite put my finger on.

No King Crimson or Keiji Haino because they didn't have the images.
